Rhu conquers the dunes under saddle

29 minutes - 1.0 mile - Rhulain

Uh oh Rhu ... the saddle is out ... you know what that means, right?

It means we'll walk out a half mile and you get to carry me home through the deep sand cause I'm too lazy to trudge through it.

The light faded rapidly once we made it back, so we practiced climbing the "dunes" (3 to 4 foot mounds) near the front gate.  This gave her an opportunity to balance with me in the saddle as she climbed dunes and navigated the shifting footing.  No refusals ... she did great!
